Weekly Gratitude

The photo is a window seat in my daughters' bedroom, that they never get to sit on because it is always stacked mile high with clothes they haven't bothered to put away!

This is another one of my gratitude layouts where I am trying to find the silver lining in something that I would otherwise not feel any gratitude over.

I had never thought of it this way,Cheri.....but you are so right.....and probably todays kids should be grateful that they can wear clothes of their choice....rather than what their mother chooses for them!!

What a great way to reframe the situation!

What a wonderful way to look at this Cheri :) I too only had the basics and now my children have so much; and you're right, I should be grateful for that instead of moaning about the ironing! I like your thinking.

Piles of clothes in the bedroom, daughter can't be bothered to put them away, sounds familiar. I'm grateful for the fact that my daughter is now old enough to do her own laundry. Yay. But she still doesn't put it away!

Good for you :-) That's so inspirational, and I will bear it in mind next time I'm doing a chore x
